Stephen Colbert

POPULARITY:The Colbert Report drew in more young viewers for Republican convention coverage than actual cable news networks. 2007 book I Am America (and So Can You!) spent 29 weeks on New York Times best seller list, thirteen weeks at number one; 2012 children’s book parody I Am a Pole (and So Can You!) also debuted at No. 1; latest book, America Again! Re-becoming the Greatness We Never Weren’t just entered list at number three in first week of release. Drew reported 215,000 to Washington D.C. Mall for his and Jon Stewart’s 2010 Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear.   FACEBOOK FOLLOWERS: 2.7 million   TWITTER FOLLOWERS: Nearly 4 million for Colbert himself   FAN NICKNAME: Colbert Nation.   MAIN HANGOUTS: Comedy Central’s Colbert Nation site, where the Colbert clips can be shared on social networks.  

AVERAGE DEMOGRAPHIC: Tends to skew male and educated; the median age of a Colbert viewer is 39, which is two years younger than Jon Stewart’s fan base and ten younger than Jimmy Fallon’s.

Comedy Central’s Tumblr is asking us to share our favorite Colbert Superfandom stories on TCR’s Facebook page, which might be featured on Vulture (New York Magazine) at a later time.

I might say to Vulture, I think Colbert News Hub is a pretty great “Colbert fan hangout.” Even, dare I say, a “main” one! Along with our friends at colbertnation.com, and The Report’s Facebook page as well, of course!

What would you guys share as “Colbert superfan” stories?
